Introduction to Organic Electronics, Fall 2005, Dr. Dietmar Knipp Presentation of advanced topics The final grade of the Organic Electronics Seminar (as part of the „Nano Molecular Science Seminar“) consists of two parts: Presentation of a selected topic (50%) and a test (50%). Each student is asked to pick an advanced topic from the list of posted topics. The propose of the presentation is to introduce a advanced topic which is related to the general research field of Organic Electronics. The topic should be presented in such a way that the class can follow the material. The presentation should consist of a motivation of the topics and an introduction, which explains the basic idea or the underlying theory. Furthermore, the synthesis, the properties and/or the fabrication of the materials and devices should be described. The presentation should be 30min. long. (20min. for the actual presentation and 10 min for discussion). Topics Presentation 2
